[quote=Anonymous]I have been a nanny for a great family for 2 years now and in the beginning everything was great the kids were 2 months and 2 years when I started. But a year ago the mom changed jobs and now works from home. Its been a full year now and it still is difficult. How do other nannies deal with this. The mom does not close her office door unless in a rare meeting and is constantly coming out and interfering. Everytime the kids and I are playing and having fun she comes out witch sends both kids into meltdowns and wanting her, or when I do crafts I can't get the kids down and clean up because they run into her office so when I caring for them I'm getting in trouble for the crafts not being put away or she gets upset that she sees the crafts are still iut when I'm in the middle of bathing the kids who are covered in paint. Or when the kids are I trouble the immedeatly go running to the mom and she sits there coddling them knowing they are in trouble. When I say no they run to her since she says yes. Mealtime is always a struggle it seams everytime I sit tgem down they happily start eating then she comes out and they start crying refuse to eat and they scresm and beg for her to hold them which she does! It just gets so frustrating I feel like I can never enjoy my time with the kids. However the rare times shes not home or in a meeting we have a blast. I spend most mornings out of the house at the park or playdates and everything does great but I can tell that shes upset were not home all day. Any ideas on how I can help the situation? [/quote]
